Bio
Wilson Seow
It was a great pleasure working with Derek in Trax. He is very organized, resourceful and willing to go extra miles to fulfill any requests that came to him. He has demonstrated strong sense of accountability and planning skills while supporting the team in the APAC region. Nonetheless, being the spokesperson from the APAC region to mitigate any HR operational gaps globally to optimize the processes. I have no hesitation to recommend Derek to your team/company and would definitely like to work with him again in the future!
